    All I can say, is glad Google is allowed :P

    Mwah ha ha.
    Seeing as I don't even own a smartphone I shall sit this one out!
    But, for the general amusement of you youngsters, the first "mobile" :D phone I had (issued by my employer) was in 1988ish and was something like this:

    motorola-brick-phone.jpg

    They were affectionately known as house bricks...

    In, but I'd have been a total loss without Google. So if I win I'll be donating the prize to a good cause :).
